Hulkenberg happy with Force India upgrade

Nico Hulkenberg on Thursday sounded upbeat about a major upgrade package introduced by Force India for the Spanish grand prix.

Germany's Auto Motor und Sport said the Silverstone based team has taken "practically a new car" to Barcelona, featuring new wings, floor, sidepods, engine cover and brake ducts for an up to half-second per lap boost.

"The car looks considerably more like a race car. You can see it with the naked eye," German Hulkenberg said.

"What we have now looks significantly closer to what the competition has," he added.
